Our bath repair service in LE17

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We are often asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and cracks in an acrylic bath, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What we are called out for in LE17

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

The things clients normally mention when they call are:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around LE17, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Questions from LE17

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
